    Retired members here?

    A friend of mine once said "why should I retire, my health is really good" and I said, "are you going to wait until your health is really bad and then retire"? Some people just don't get it!!

    New to Me Chinese Air Rifle

    Hello, I still do have mine and shoot it ever so often. I did remove the rear sights as seen in the pictures as my eyes require a scope to be mounted. I find this rifle to be surprisingly accurate. I tried a few different pellets, and this rifle seems to like the Crosman Domed Ultra Magnum...

    Benjamin Loading A Benjamin Marauder Rifle

    Yes, it does have the "AIR HOLE DON'T OIL" hole. And when you were a kid, you always put oil in the "AIR HOLE DON'T OIL" hole just to see what would happen!!
